Microsoft has posted a Windows XP Tablet PC Edition 2005 Energy Blue Theme Pack; new colors, new effects and a new wallpaper will give your Tablet a fresh, updated appearance.

You can download the Windows XP Tablet PC Edition 2005 Energy Blue Theme Pack from our [1.65 MB] Web site.

With a little work, it is also possible to use this theme on a "normal" (non- Tablet PC) Windows XP:

1. Download the Energy Blue Theme Pack
2. Copy or move the WindowsXP-TabletPC-EnergyBlueTheme-x86-ENU.exe to \WINDOWS\Resources\Themes
3. Use your favorite zip utility (WinRAR or WinZIP) right-click the WindowsXP-TabletPC-EnergyBlueTheme-x86-ENU.exe file, and (depending on your zip utility):
   • WinZIP: from the right-click context menu choose Winzip > Extract to here
   • WinRAR: from the right-click context menu choose the WinRAR command Extract here
   
   
4. That's all! (if you want to save some space, you can delete the WindowsXP-TabletPC-EnergyBlueTheme-x86-ENU.exe from \WINDOWS\Resources\Themes)

To select the theme, right click an empty space on your desktop, and choose Properties from the context menu. From the Theme drop-down box choose Energy Blue and press Apply.
